“COVID-19 has been very destructive. Many people have lost their jobs and have little or no money available. The War in Ukraine has aggravated the situation as the price of fuel is increasing.

“We have all lost, we have suffered and for most of us it was difficult to cope. But we found joy in the simplest of acts and we extended compassion to each other. We began to love.

“Notwithstanding the fact that I tested positive for COVID yesterday (Friday, April 8) I am doing fine. I have a little congestion so I am taking decongestants.

“Right now, most of us are what you call skint. So, we are going into the summer period where a lot of us do not have the necessary cash reserves. We have exhausted all of the reserves we do have and so we are very mindful of the fact that this summer really is going to matter in terms of the survivability of many of our businesses and many of our members, and we take that very seriously.” – Renée Coppin, Chairman, Barbados Hotel and Tourism Association (Barbados Today)

If you have been to St. Maarten for Carnival, you are familiar with the fascinating display of costumes, colors, dance and music that we have perfected over 51 years.” – Roger Lawrence, Minister of Tourism, St. Maarten (Caribbean Journal)

We look forward to introducing Aurora Anguilla and the beauty of its people to our Salamander loyalists.” – Sheila C. Johnson, Founder & CEO, Salamander Hotels & Resorts
